A spectacular light show and fireworks display concluded the historic blessing of the Tower of Jesus Christ by Pope Leo XIV at Barcelona’s Sagrada Família. Our EWTN News team was on the ground and got to experience the life-changing moments.
Pope Leo XIV fulfilled Barcelona’s dream: he blessed and inaugurated the Tower of Jesus Christ of the Sagrada Familia, making the iconic temple the tallest church in the world. Lights, music, and spectacular fireworks marked a historic night, coinciding with the centenary of the death of Antoni Gaudí, the “architect of God,” on his path to the altars.
